Yeah, it's almost a shame that things got so sidetracked into all that X-Babies stuff because it seemed to peg Adams as the guy who only did the funny stuff. Looking at things now, it's hard to believe that the X-Men ever had such a whimsical era. Maybe that'd be a good idea for the movie series? No? Well, just a thought.

Oh, I just remembered that Adams also did the Mordru entry for the "loose leaf" Who's Who too didn't he?

I absolutely loved Art's X-Men annuals. The New Mutants one, where they were transported to Asgard, was breathtakingly beautiful! And I loved his Longshot mini. No one ever drew Longshot as well, in my opinion.

I kind of think of him as a cross between Liefield and Lee, with Lee's attention to detail, and Rob's overly long legs [Wink]

Longshot was one of my favorite X-Men back in the day. But Mojo was quite annoying. And I remember that Asgardian annual as well. His art was perfect for that and I always wondered what would have happened if he were to have drawn Thor for awhile.

That New Mutants special he did in Asgard was the firts time I saw an artist put "easter eggs" in his work -- I remember Kermit the Frog and Mr. Bill (among others) in the background.

Some of his more recent works include the "Monkeyman and O'Brien" backups that featured in early issues of Hellboy, I believe.

He's a self-confessed monkey fan - he also did the covers for DC's JLApe (sigh) crossover of a few years back.
